There is established within the State Treasury a special

donation which may be received by the State Election Commission
from any person, firm, foundation or corporation. Any balance,

shall remain in the fund. Expenditures may be made from the fund
only for the purposes set forth in this article and in accordance
with the provisions of article three, chapter twelve of this code
and upon fulfillment of the provisions of article two, chapter
eleven-b of this code.
